Canadians say NO NO NO to bill C21 completely! The whole bill must go right away, and the lying Fiberals must go first chance we get at the polling station!
Also very important, defunding mainstream bogus misleading news!
Good. This was an absolute breach of public trust. And the entire bill C21 is absolute nonsense. Major waste of tax payer money. IT’S NOT LAW ABIDING CITIZENS YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT
this is called THE DOOR IN THE FACE TECHNIQUE. Look it up it was always the plan. Never let the government steal your legally obtained property
Janice McGregor mentioned a first nations leader advocating for "traditional" hunting rights. Traditional hunting typically refers to the practice of hunting using methods and tools that have been used for generations, such as spears, bows, and traps. The use of firearms, particularly modern military-style weapons like the M16, is generally not considered traditional hunting.
It is a victory, and one that should pave the way for many more!!
Good scrap this entire bill ban the pm.
Hey CBC what happened to your Fiberals? This must be a lil egg on the face eh! You’ve been instrumental with your incomplete on purpose journalism supporting Fiberal twisted narratives and now what, your still not credible! Your getting defunded right after the next election!
Trudeau wants his subjects disarmed
THIS WAS ALWAYS THE PLAN SO YOU ACCEPT THE OTHER PROPERTY THEFT LIKE THEY ARE DOING YOU A FAVOR
WE ,in the U.S. are so fortunate to have the Second Amendment , it’s straight forward with no compromise . " The RIGHT to bear ARMS shall not be infringed upon " !!!
Thumbs down for calling legal firearms; weapons. Your bias is showing CBC. Do better.
All they’ve done is pressed the pause button… we haven’t heard or seen the last of the libs road to totalitarian government overreach .
Shut the CBC down.
As a person who plays airsoft this bill has made me angry. I play airsoft as a sport much in the way of hockey, lacrosse, baseball, etc. The government has now taken away another thing I like
#TrudeauMustGo He’s accomplished absolutely nothing in 8 years of being in office but raising our taxes and food prices and trying to take Canadians rights away sickening.
Funny, it’s only an assault style rifle when it’s owned by lawful firearms owners. When owned by police agencies it’s a carabine rifle.
😂😂😂
Imagine a fire department going door to door dumping water on everyone’s bbq, while ignoring a huge structure fire one street over. Thats what bill C-21 is doing.
OK, They’re not "Weapons". They are firearms.
I have 20k in LEGALLY obtained rifles. Unbelievable that they proposed to confiscate them without any compensation. I will NEVER forget, and now I will donate my yearly donations to canadian firearms lobbyists.
Interestingly, it didn’t take an armed rebellion to get government to back off. Obviously, these rabid gun owners are actually sane, law abiding citizens who are made up of good stuff.
As Bill C-21 stands today will cause sports shooting to end this generation, because when your handgun, AR15 are gone or break and cannot be repaired, 3-gun sports shooting will end, Olympic shooters will cease to compete, and new shooters, that handgun and Olympic shooting need to draw from for elite shooters, will stop, and cease the shooting sports. This bill needs to be scrapped. Full stop. Legal vetted gun owners need the publics support because even hunters are being cancelled. We need bail reform and to have violent criminals with stiffer sentences.
Trudeau just kept lying
canadians are ignorant sheep and disserve to be treated with contempt for their hatred of freedom
Stil all BS. The Liberals have no definition of assault “style” weapons. Their thought of assault “style” actually doesn’t exist ib Canada. CBC has lost their way.
Canada is also controlled by deep state
Round one might be over….BUT NO worries folks…Trudoo wants REVENGE against ALL CANADIANS…
.AND GARRENTEE …TRUDOO AND HIS CORUPT GOVERNMENT WILL FIND ANOTHER WAY THE CONFISCATE ALL FIREARMS
I have a bolt action repeater 22 used for rodent control ,skunks , raccoons and coyotes. How can you live in rural Canada without you or your neighbour having a gun
There is no justification for taking away individuals’ freedom in the guise of public safety.
Thomas Jefferson
After the protests and executing the emergencies act, now they just blatantly take our guns away. This seems very much like tyranny. They don’t want us to have our guns, so they can completely crush us if they provoke a very serious protest.
Just goe’s to show you how much of a snake theTrudass is.PUKE
I woulda love to see them try and take it ! Good choice squashing it!
Why are they calling it weapons 🤔
Toss the entire bill and CBC in the garage. Street crime in major cities has nothing to do with rural living. Crime is never a result of legal weapons. The best ppl i know with firearm safety are the legal pistol owners. This entire bill is junk.
your entire job is to speak clearly and fluently, not to give your opinion… get the first one right before doing the latter please
Liberals Still Want all Your guns… Do not think this is over for Rural Canada.
Assault ?
Dang, Canada has really gone off the deep end. Freezing bank assets of peaceful protesters, tamping down on free speech, now banning of firearms. Yikes. Becoming a proper authoritarian state.
Liberals cant define "assault style" because it doesn’t exist
Its a weasel word that JT and Marco love to use
They can’t do nothing and they don’t get guns only bullets
This isn’t over, the corrupt liberals & their dishonest media (👆🏻) aren’t done, simply delayed in trying to disarm the entire country.
she needs to stop calling them "weapons".
I don’t own "weapons" I am a sportsmen and own firearms to practice my hobby/sport.
Anyone who thinks banning guns is for our benefit, clearly has to much faith in there government. Just wait until the day they disarm us and try to control us. What are you going to do then? Any logical person would want the right to defend themselves, don’t put so much faith in your government. They day we are unarmed, is the day we are no better then cattle.
All the guns should be banned then everyone can be safe
Sounds to me like that reporter is suggesting that ONLY conservatives own guns and see this is a victory. WRONG!
Now we need to go after bill C11. This permits the Trudeau government to allow what you can and can not view. But I’m sure they wouldn’t abuse it…. lol
The entire C-21 should be scrapped
Why would the Liberals really care about canceling Amendments? When they can get rid literally everything through the "Variant" clause in the main bill… I think they have just decided to go this route to eliminate Conservative talking points on banning hunting rifles. Make no mistake, Sock boy and his little band of thugs will never give up trying to implement a firearm free Canada.
They’re doing the bait and switch maneuver again. They’ll propose something unrealistic then push something else that’ll take a chunk out of the legal owners so both sides can say they won but they’ll do the same thing next year they’ll chip away at the gun ownership untill there is nothing left then move on to something else. like knife laws 🤢
The Canadian government has……………………. Changed
